Having played the remastered original in beforehand, I revisited the old gem of a sequel being Tiberian Sun out of nostalgia. Graphically an improvement with a bit more intimate story from both sides. The quality-of-life features are somewhat outdated and flawed pathfinding are still an issue. The biggest offender is having to comb through the map to kill/destroy the last enemy unit in order to win the scenario (I learned that even laser fences count, too... Bleh!)

In the end, I stopped the campaigns midway and watched rest of the story on Youtube. Would be nice of this to get the remaster treatment as well, though.

Carrying on the Tiberium saga, the third output introduces full 3D playfield. The features brings up the quality-of-life factor to modern standards, including waypoints and unit behavior settings. Majority of the units have their tactical advantages and I found more than a few favorites from each faction.

A welcome approach in the campy yet increasingly bombastic story (a C&C trademark) is that it's told in each faction's perspective (as done in Firestorm), contrary to prior games going for separate outcomes respective to the faction choices. This had me look up the fan-compiled timeline and shifted between the campaigns to follow the main story coherently.

It's one of the better Command & Conquer games released IMO. Remember to patch up the game to fix the mission difficulty levels and get an HD remaster on it.

The expansion game got a stand-alone edition on Steam and expands on Kane's story that tells of events before, during and after the Third Tiberium War, fleshing it out a bit more with some revelations that took place in the original's campaign. New units are added that have their unique, tactical advantages and even flesh out on already existing ones. Kane's Wrath also introduces the Conquest mode to put a turn-based strategy element into the game, although I only checked out the tutorial to see how it functions. Kane's Wrath is an expansion that I wished was part of C&C3 originally, but nevertheless the game I recommend for fans of the franchise.
